Obama ACORN to Crash Tax Day Tea Parties? ( Bring it on! )
With only one week left before citizens in 2,000 U.S. cities take to the streets in protest of government spending this Tax Day, will ACORN and the Huffington Post crash the party?
ACORN spokesman Charles Jackson told WND his group will be rallying on the same day.
“ACORN is going to be engaged in a series of rallies across the country on April 15 in support of the priorities outlined in President Obama’s first budget – investments in education, health care, and getting Americans back to work,” Jackson said.
He continued, “This is the first we’ve heard of these ‘tea parties’ and, frankly, a gripe-fest by a bunch of conservatives whose preferred economic policies got us in this mess in the first place is of no interest to us.”
Some say it would be a very difficult task to take over a grass-roots movement so large. The American Family Association is reporting tea parties for 1,856 cities Wednesday, and WND has confirmed information for more than 450 protests.
Fox News’ Neil Cavuto reports “over-caffeinated crashers” plan to show up at Tax Day tea parties. He said he has received reports of “very well-organized infiltrators trying to mix in and rain on this parade.”
In addition to ACORN rallies for Tax Day, the Huffington Post has organized an online sign up for anyone to attend the events on behalf of its organization as “citizen journalists.”
“The Huffington Post wants to have citizen journalists at as many of these events as possible,” the website states. “If you think you’d be interested in attending one of the Tea Parties and reporting back to us with dispatches, photos, or video, click here to sign up. We’ll contact you shortly with further instructions.”
